Hello all,

I have executed MTD tests against an unmounted MTD device which uses UBIFS.=
 All MTD tests except OOB test is passed where the OOB test fails from time=
 to time and from device to device. I have read here:

http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/ubi.html#L_why_no_oob

that UBIFS does not use OOB area. Therefore wanted to ask if failing this t=
est does not need that there is any problem in our system (both HW and SW/c=
onfiguration) and we can safely ignore the results for this test.

Thanks in advance,

Danesh Daroui
